What's it mean when Clover hangs at "root device uuid is..."?

I have a working Yosemite system using Chimera. I just upgraded my BIOS to UEFI, and I'm trying to get Clover working. This is all I did:

- Installed Clover from http://sourceforge.net/projects/cloverefiboot/
- Got config.plist-Standard.zip from http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-desktop-guides/144426-how-install-os-x-yosemite-using-clover.html (because I have an AMD Radeon HD 6570)
- Changed "Boot" -> "DefaultVolume" to "Macintosh" (the name of my HD)
- Changed "Boot" -> "Arguments" to "-gux_defer_usb2 -gux_no_idle kext-dev-mode=1" (from my working /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist)

I haven't copied any kexts out of SLE because http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-desktop-guides/144426-how-install-os-x-yosemite-using-clover.html says they should still work in SLE, and that I can have Chimera and Clover both installed because I'm using UEFI.

When I boot into Clover and select "Boot Mac OS X from Macintosh", the screen clears and nothing else happens. If I set -v as a boot flag, I see some text:

efiboot loaded from device: (and a long path)
boot file path: System\Library\CoreServices\boot.efi
......................
root device uuid is... (and a uuid)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (long row of plusses - I didn't count how many)

I know I'm missing something, but what? What's supposed to be happening at this point?

Do I need to install any of the Drivers64UEFI from the Clover installer, such as either OsxAptioFixDrv-64 or OsxAptioFix2Drv-64?
 
You can find OsxAptioFixDrv-64 in Clover EFI installer.
